In configure.in, for powerpc-apple-darwin, I believe that "using fink
packages if available" should be removed. There is no use for that (as
far as I know?) since the needed packages (I think it's only ncurses)
are part of the normal development environment.
The problem with using fink packages is when one builds on a machine
with fink present. The resulting binary will have dynamic dependencies
to "/sw/lib/..." which might not exist on other machines.
I suggest following patch:

Well, I added this code specifically to find some extra libs, not
for ncurses. I can't remember exactly which libs I cared about but IIRC
there was Xaw3d (used for the scrollbar) as well some image libs.
There could also be gtk libs there for people who want to build with gtk.
AFAIK the reasons I added the code are still valid. Maybe this only makes
sense for the X11 build and not for the Carbon build, I wouldn't know (I
only build it for X11).

I forgot about X11... (I only build for Carbon...). I understand the
need there. Perhaps then it should also check for darwinports
(/opt/local/{include,lib}) as some people use that instead of fink?
I still think it's a problem with dependencies on files which are not
always present, but I guess one just has to be careful when building a
binary package (I do 'mv /sw /sw.SAVE' prior to my build...).
